Also sometimes kapag paatras ako parang nanginginig buong makina and sometime nag-je-jerk, stop mag-isa. Although bihirang-bihira din. I informed my SA about it and sabi kelangan daw palitan yung flywheel. Patanong naman sa inyo guys kung ano ang flywheel and should i have it replaced? im just worried baka iba ang problem or if ever yun, whatever that is, baka lumala pa yung problem. By the way, over all cost nung flywheel at labor is 12k. Should i go for it? I need your inputs. Thanks in advance.

Suggest you change the CVTF as soon as possible, bro.

I understand that the recommended replacement for this is every 20KKm....

12.3K:outcold:

You mean the transmission fluid? i follow the PMS religiously kahit low mileage ako.

I also have the 2006 1.5 AT model and having this problem as well from time to time. All was well before nabutas yung tube na nasa ilalim yung takip na may VTEC logo. Tumaas yung RPM ko nun pag N ng hanggang 2Krpm. Nung napalitan na nung tube, ayun, bumabagsak naman RPM ko.

Nung nagpalit ako ng CVTF, hindi din naman naayos so i guess meron pang need ayusin. Don't have time din na ipatingin. Ngayon medyo nabawasan na ung times na ganun pero it would be better to have it fixed para wala sakit ng ulo.

Nung nagtanong ako kay Mel Casaba via text, sabi, tune up lang daw need ng car ko.

Do you think having the flywheel replaced as recommended by casa a good idea? ang sabi nila pwedeng yun daw pero they can't guarantee na yun nga yun

parang ang dating e trial and error

buti sana kung hundred of pesos lang kaso 12k plus ang pinag-uusapan.

not sure din bro e, mid March pako magpapacheck ng mga topak ng kotse since di naman talaga siya annoyance for me kasi bihira na talaga nangyayari unlike before.

nagtry ka na ba mag inquire ng price ng replacement parts? try mo mag call sa Fertes, 3715443. sa Roosevelt Ave un sa QC. mas malaki matitipid mo if you're ok with replacement parts.

actually bihira lang nga talaga mangyari. kaya lang nakakatakot kasi sign na yan na merong hindi tama and we all dont want it to end up na buong transmission ang papalitan

will try to call that number. thanks.

mas mabuti pa siguro ibenta na

hehe, balitaan mo na lang kami if that solves the problem. para papapalitan ko na din yung flywheel ko. :D

option ko na din dati to sell the car na lang and get a 2nd hand civic. pero it's giving me 11-13km/L on city driving kaya ang hirap bitawan.

I don't think its the flywheel.

Kasi if it is the flywheel...manginginig yun engine mo everytime you rev up.
Sabi mo kasi..Minsan lng. :P

*patricksee: hehe. yup, will share here sa forum kapag may update na ako.

*istan: yup minsan lang. and yung pangi-nginig ng makina is nangyayari during reverse not going forward. hmm... yun nga kasi iniisip ko e baka gusto lang ako perahan nung casa. any idea what could that be?

12K sa honda casa? pwede na. usually mas mahal maningil mga yan. pa sigurado mo lang na yun nga ang solution.
